'Shame on you!' Dems erupt on House floor as Mike Johnson orders recess despite shutdown - Lemmy.World

Democratic leadership in this moment is incredibly bad.
Oh yes, how dare they shutdown the house floors… Oh wait.

I think the goal of some of these lemmites (lemmings, lemmors?) is to push all the moderates out of the Democratic Party so we’re left with only the truest most liberal of politicians. And from there, we will win 20 senate seats and never see the presidency again.

If democrats aren’t alienating the majority of Americans, they aren’t the party for us!

Ah the enlightened centrist take that has been leading to loss after loss in campaigns.
I’m in no way saying we need to take a moderate/centrist approach. I am saying this is a moment when Republicans are vulnerable, and all this community wants to do is bag on the Democratic Party. That is how we always lose.

Well the Republicans are currently doing whatever they want because the Democratic party has been so utterly worthless for so long.

They can’t fight against fascism in an election and barrel to the right. They can’t fight fascism when they have power.

The Dems deserve every ounce of vitriol they are getting right now they are a fundamentally useless organization that only serves as the slightly less mean wing of conservative thought in the US.
